Missing pets. erm, companions.

Post by Monstercandy

I made a 2ed account and mounts and pets went missing I had 36 in-game pets that had to be returned, plus mounts, got it fixed then i transferred another toon, and boom, gone again. The 3rd time I even got insulted, and the 2nd and 3rd GM's tried to play dumb on what they could or could not do . I think we deserve something for our troubles because I know many people are affected. (Tho I know Blizz would never be so nice.) Got most of my pets back except the store bought ones, we will see on the pets. I bet tho on my 2nd account they are still all missing like the last 2 times. They say the mounts are in the mail. ....All of them? Hmm. and counting tho They said that with this patch it MIGHT be fixed, who is holding their breath, not me!

If the two accounts aren't tied together under the same B-Net license, they aren't going to be shared.

They are tied.

the only 2 mounts that did not transfer to the 2nd account are my Warlocks 2 mounts, oh, and I looked, they returned all but 1 of my mounts, but I'll be damned if I can tell which, I had 101 on 1st account, now 100.

Yeah....Class mounts don't transfer over. But you still have a counter of 101 mounts on the account, and that will keep ticking as you get new mounts. I have a 170 mounts on my Monk, and 172 on my Paladin, Warlock and Death Knight.

I would like to correct myself on something. I keep saying pets, but I really am talking about companions, my word bad :)

Right you are, the 1st GM I talked to informed me of that. I should now have 101 and 99 per account but still 1 gone. They also said that quite a few people are having the same problem, let's see if they truly fix it tonight. They did say we might have to wait for 5.2 before it is hopefully fixed so ya know. :)

Oh and grats on the massive mounts, I'm jealous, lol. No actually, not jealous, impressed. :)

The pet bug I have noticed is that Mr. Bigglesworth keeps spawning clones of himself in my pet window and I have to delete them.

I find that the pet count between my horde and alliance toons varies slightly, but I'm pretty sure that's because I have earned the guild herald and the argent squire on the alliance side, but not the horde, and so the actual amount of pets is different for each side.

Mounts seems to be pretty static between my characters, except for class ones and faction-specific ones (the ones that don't automatically translate to the horde equivalent), so I haven't seen any issues there.

Do you know which pet is missing?

Post by Monstercandy

I am missing several, the ones I remember off the top of my head are Lil deathwing, Lil XT, Windrider cub, and the Black panther cub, there are others I bought too that are gone.

5.2 should be coming out soon, so if it's a bug hopefully it'll sort itself out. Since all of those were bought for real money, though, I'd wonder if this wasn't just working as intended.

Double check your count in your faction home city. I noticed after a realm transfer that opening my pet or mount tab in any other location resulted in sudden multiples which would compound the more I opened the window. At one point my mount count was over 500 doing this. I got annoyed and just put a couple of pets and mounts on an unused action bar to avoid searching through exponentially growing lists.
